My New Year Wish

Everything is great
Everything is grand
I've got the whole wide world in the palm of my hand

Everything is perfect
It's falling into place
I can't seem to wipe this smile off my face

Life's a happy song
When there's someone by my side to sing along

When you're alone, life can be a little low
It makes you feel like you're three foot tall
When it's just you, well times can be tough
When there's no one there to catch your fall
 
 
Everything is perfect
It's falling into place
I can't seem to wipe this smile off my face
 
 
Life smells like a rose
With someone to paint
And someone to pose
 
 
Life's a piece of cake
With someone to pedal
And someone to brake

Life is full of glee
With someone to saw
And someone to see

Life's a happy song
When there's someone by my side to sing along
 
 
I've got everything that I need--right in front of me
Nothing's stopping me
Nothing that I can't be
With you right here next to me

Life's a piece of cake
With someone to give
And someone to take
 
 
Life's a piece of pie
With someone to wash
And someone to dry
 
 
Life's an easy road
With someone beside you to share the load

Life is full of highs
With someone to stir
And someone to fry
 
 
Life's a leg of lamb
With someone there to lend a hand
 
 
Life's a bunch of flowers
With someone to while away the hours

Life's a fillet of fish, eh?
...Yes, it is!
 
 
Life's a happy song
When there's someone by your side to sing along...
 
 
You've got everything that you need--right in front of you
Nothing's stopping you
Nothing that you can't do
That the world can throw at you
 
 
Life's a happy song
When there's someone by your side to sing

Life's a happy song
When there's someone by your side to sing
 
 
Life's a happy song
When there's someone by you side to sing along!

My wish for 2012 is that we all have someone by our side to sing along.

  3. Oh my blog is giving me such trouble today! It forgot a whole "Life is full of glee..." and then it wanted to publish in all the wrong colors. Errgghh. Nonetheless, I'm happy you're here to sing along!

  8. Nice song! I love the Muppets. Didn't they do "Inch worm, inch worm"? Also "It's not easy being green." One of my favorites.

    Happy New Year all. May it bring you all the best of everything!
